L'île perdue

This show centered around 5 children who used there combined efforts to take control of an island inhabited by people still living in the past. It combines the realism of what if time travel was possible. It demonstrates the kids ability to work together. Catch theme song.

Loved every episode that played. It was the first show that continued in a series with a conclusion. Loved the open and closing tunes. Hope this will come to DVD. It was wonderful to see how 5 people could come together on a sailing ship from many countries and end up on an island inhabited by people from the15/16th century. As it goes. There once was a wealthy man who had a wonderful idea. To bring children from all places with all kinds of faces. Together into a sailing ship there were forty boys and girls. They would sail their ship around the world so they called it. The "United World". The ship was just three weeks from show when a hurricane bore down. The waves were big as mountains. They thought they would surely drown. They jumped into the lifeboats and rowed away from the wreck. They didn't count them they hadn't time 5 children where left behind. The children fought the storm all night then finally fell asleep. They didn't realize the ship had been blown across the reef into the Lost Islands. But hiding in the bushes was a watchful pair of eyes and living in the valley were people lost in time. Ruled over by a tyrant whose face was in a mask. The children must defeat them so They can escape at last from the Lost Islands. The Lost Islands.

I have hoped all these last years to see The lost Islands, again. I was so excited when I saw the DVD in a big famous shop in Paris. The adventures of the five children who find themselves in an island where are living people like 200 years ago are still impassioning. Like another commentator, my only regret is that it is obvious that a second season was previous and not shoot. I could not find any comment about the film, The Lost Islands (with the same cast), that was released in Australia in 1975. Does anyone know something about it ? I would be so pleased to see it as well. Anyway thanks to the Australian channel who produced this wonder and to the French DVD distributor for having bought the rights of it and made The Lost Islands not lost anymore. Merci

I remember as a young boy watching this show breathlessly, and in Turkey!. No wonder none of my friends in US have no idea about this show, I now realize that it is an Australian product: an excellent one. The song stayed with me, and I noticed that the lyrics are available on a web-site TV Nostalgia. I wonder if they are available online somewhere. As far as I recall the suspense was amazing, the Q character was invincibly evil. There were some innocent islanders suffering in the hands of the pirates who control the islands. IT created a sensation in Turkey. To find this one was easy, but I also remember an Italian show about some people stranded on an island. There were some evil people who created a sense of supernatural cause for several murders. A very beautiful blonde falls to the island and she tries to escape to no avail. IT was a pretty scary show. I hope I will find the track of that one too. I wish The Lost Islands will appear on DVD some time soon.

This show made it to the UK as well. I've not seen it since 1979 and yet that theme song is imbedded in my brain forever! This is the best kids tv show to have come out of Australia; way better than Skippy! A great premise, teen heroes that aren't too annoying, great villains and genuine excitement in each episode. It was also very well filmed in exotic locations. My regret is that it only lasted one series; we were left hanging in suspense as to what was going to happen. Maybe a remake is in order?
